Shoutbox

BlackStar, nice find... never encountered such a file. And I assume Patchou or the other beta-testers didn't either, so ...

You will get the same msgbox (msgbox 1 in the picture) when the filename is too long. But since this is a messagebox, I assume not much can be done about it. I mean, a keystroke can be send to close it, or even to close it and then choose "save as", but it still would require the users input. Both messageboxes can even appear one after the other...

The same goes for when you recieved a file for the first time and you didn't set a virusscanner to check it or something. A msgbox will popup to warn you (msgbox 2 in the picture).

But all this said, it shouldn't fail the file upload though...

While I'm here, how does it work with virus scanners?

The virusscan is initiated after the file has been downloaded. The file is send to the scanner, from there on it is in the hands of the scanner. So this doesn't interfair with the autoaccept or anything at all. It just works like it should work (unless it is a the first time that you've received a file and you didn't set a virusscanner, see above)
